So today went totally as planned. Or not. First, Pooh woke me up about an hour after I went to sleep. She wanted me to come downstairs with her so she could play and watch Johnny Test cartoons. Marilyn tried to shoo her away, but she started crying. Naturally, Grandpa surrendered. We watched cartoons until about 0330. Pooh started getting cold -- her and Marilyn's reaction to shutting down for sleep. So, finally back to bed.
I had intended on going to church this morning, but lack of sleep makes me (a) feel rotten and (b) aggravates my dizziness. So gave up on church. Marilyn did get out for church and Johnathon went with her. No surprise that Pooh slept in.
While Marilyn was getting ready for church we heard thundering and, with the darkness outside, were expecting rain. What we got wasn't even a good try at rain -- merely pavement dampening.
When Marilyn got back, around 1400, she had Alex with her as well as Johnathon. Karen was not well and neither was Kelly, so the get together was cancelled.
The kids spent the afternoon in the pool, while Marilyn started stuffing envelopes for Kerry and we watched the 1940s version of Great Expectations, which we've been trying to get to for about a month. It was well done -- of course it would be hard to go wrong with John Mills and Alec Guiness -- but no matter how good a movie is, it never lives up to the book.
Then Marilyn had to take Alex home and I put on potato soup.
Kerry spent the afternoon working on cleaning out her closet. Pooh came downstairs at one point and said, "Mommy's cleaning the closet and our room is a disaster area."
After Marilyn got back we watched, first, season 2 episode 1 of Sherlock. Now we're watching last week's episode of Rizzoli & Isles.
